I am quite new to Palm development and would like someone's opinion on the UI controls I should use in the project I am working on. First an explanation of what I need to do:
The main form needs to have three columns: 1) allows user to enter a number (possibly with decimal places) 2) allows the user to select a value from a list of choices 3) displays the number in item 1 divided by 4 (this text is not editable) The user should be able to add runtime probably by clicking a button. My original idea was to use a table for this. I still need to look into the API functions for the Table control to see how difficult it is to dynamically add and remove rows. I just read recently that Table does not allow you to edit numbers. I take this to mean that an editable field in a Table column doesn't do any data validation to make sure the user only enters digits. I guess I could roll my own code to do this validation, but would it be easier to use Field and PopupTrigger controls instead and dynamically allocate them? Is it even possible to dynamically create controls and add them to a form at runtime? This is essentially the crux of my question. Thanks in advance for your help.
